Client Reviews

I passed my practical first time round today. I am very pleased with my instructor, Jon F. I enjoyed my lessons; highlights include driving to Windsor and to the Mercedes Benz Centre in Weybridge. He really helped boost my confidence. I highly recommend Jon as your driving instructor!

Ravneet Brar - Hounslow, Middlesex (30th January 2014)

I am very pleased with my instructor James as I passed my practical test last Friday, I had been driving for 8 years in Colombia but I had to take the theory and practical test here in the UK. I just had 5 hours with James he taught me how to drive and pass my test.

I recommend James as instructor from Britannia Wimbledon because he is very patient, understanding and encouraging. He explained to me every single thing very clearly since English is not my first language and also I detected my weaknesses and worked on it with advice and practice.

As a result I passed my test and I am very grateful for James for helping me to do it.

Thank you so much James.

Nestor Vanegas - Wimbledon, London (29th January 2014)

I knew how to make a car move (I had been driving for 10 years in India). However my instructor Paul F actually taught me HOW to DRIVE in 17 hours. One hour less and I might have failed my test.

Paul has been spot on with his assessments. He has been very encouraging and yet, really pushed me in the last few lessons to do better.

Best of all, he kept my spirits up, ensured I was confident, and kept me focused on what I must not do wrong.

Hoshedar Wadia - Wimbledon, London (28th January 2014)

Having recently passed my test I would highly recommend Jane as a driving instructor. She is very patient, and really encouraging and gave me confidence that I could drive and pass the test. She highlighted the areas that I needed to improve on and helped me think about how I was going to develop my driving skills. I enjoyed my lessons with Jane and looked forward to them. A big thank you for getting me through the test!

Joanna Morrison - Wandsworth, London (27th January 2014)

I passed my practical test today and have been learning on and off with John Orphanou over the past 18 months (delay caused by me). We got on very well and he was knowledgeable with what was required for me to pass. He always pushed my driving by giving me harder types of manoeuvres that would make anything that came up in the test seem easy, and as the lessons went on, we drove on challenging routes to test my abilities. I didn’t realise as much at the time fully that this was to prepare me the best possible for the test. I now fully understand this and cannot thank John enough. He did everything possible to ensure I was ready and in the end I passed with 2 minors. The test actually seemed fairly easy and his advice was all spot on. Thanks Mate!!!

Thomas Larcombe - Streatham, London (24th January 2014)

Big thanks to my star instructor John Orphanou from Britannia, he managed the seemingly impossible and guided me to a clear test pass (less than 5 minor errors!) .
I was very impressed with his level of knowledge, patience and professionalism. Anybody serious about wanting to improve as a driver , experienced or not – give this guy a call!

David Forbes - Wimbledon, London (21st January 2014)

Special thanks to Tim! I started lessons with Tim on 2 Jan. Just 20 days later I passed my driving test on my first try with only 2 minors! A lot of this had to do with the instructor I had. From the very first lesson, Tim struck me as very professional and competent, not only at driving but also at teaching. He goes a lot further than just telling you when something is wrong or right. He has a knack for figuring out why you are making certain mistakes and is very good at helping you overcome the errors–through clear explanations, memory aids, etc–so that you don’t keep making them. And he does all this while remaining incredibly patient and friendly. He is a very effective teacher, and I would strongly recommend him.

Brett Best - Twickenham, Middlesex (22nd January 2014)

I would just like to thank Darren for helping me pass! I have had a few instructors prior to Darren, none of which seemed to work! Darren was very patient throughout the lessons, and really helped and taught me to focus, and he managed to stengthen my awareness. So, thanks Darren.

Anastasia Hadjipateras - Paddington, London (16th January 2014)

Many thanks to Nick for getting me through to pass my test. He pushed me to pass rather quickly, definitely not someone to hold you back, he has a friendly vibe while keeping it professional. He was always on time for lessons, showing up at least 5 minutes early and made sure I got the most out of them. Nicks Audi A1 was a great car to learn in, good quality and drive. I would 100% recommend nick as your driving instructor!

Ronnie Dawson - Herne Hill, London (15th January 2014)

I think Darren was a brilliant instructor who taught me well and I feel very confident in my driving.

Silvio Dilo - Ealing, London (15th January 2014)

I was very pleased with my instructor Keith. He was very patient, understanding and encouraging. Keith was a great instructor not only because he explained everything very clearly but also he was willing to adapt his approach to solve my weaknesses. I made massive progress in a short period. I would highly recommend him to anyone. Really enjoyed the experience. Thank you very much, Keith!

Yan Mo - Feltham, Middlesex (14th January 2014)

John O was great in boosting my confidence while driving and telling me all minor observations that people forget and that could make you fail your test. I had only 4 minor faults.
He’s a bad ass intructor!

Manoel Collards - Streatham, London (9th January 2014)

As a new driver, i was very apprehensive about driving. When i met my driving instructor Nick, he made me feel very comfortable and his confidence was really reassuring and i relaxed very quick. I suppose when you think of being taught, you hark back to school days of frustrated teachers and an unpleasant atmosphere. Nick’s approach was to be a friend as well as a teacher and i think this was key to making each lesson enjoyable and engaging. Reading all the wonderful reviews about Nick and other Britannia instructors, i feel very lucky to have chosen such a great company to learn with.

Passed 1st time!
Thank you Nick! 🙂

Jonny Love - Streatham, London (10th January 2014)

Many thanks to Britannia, I passed my practical test. Everything was take care of for me and to top it all off Albert my instructor was amazing right up to the end. Albert was patient, understanding, encouraging as well as very friendly without losing the professional edge. I would strongly recommend BRITANNIA to anyone looking to have practical lessons. Thanks you Team Britannia

Howard Nzalie - Rotherhithe, London (10th January 2014)

Nick was a fantastic instructor who explained everything very clearly. His preparation for the test was excellent, taking me down various routes and covering difficult areas around the test centre. He was patient with me in areas I struggled and is generally a great guy to learn with! I definitely recommend him as a driving instructor.

Samit Patel - Merton Park, London (8th January 2014)

I took lessons with Keith who made me feel quite at ease and confident in the way I drive. He has an excellent attitude and does not find unnecessary reasons to delay you taking your test if he thinks you are ready. We covered all the manoeuvres with such ease – him talking me through them. Really enjoyed the experience. Would recommend.

Sana Hai - Kingston Upon Thames (8th January 2014)

I just passed my test first time! I had Mark as my instructor and he was brilliant. I would highly recommend him to anyone as he is very helpful, clear and to the point which I think is just what you need in an instructor. Mark and Britannia Driving school thank you very very much!

Darien Johnny - Wimbledon, London (8th January 2014)

Darren was absolutely outstanding as an instructor! Hugely supportive, patient and encouraging. You have a real asset in him 🙂 I would recommend Britannia without hesitation. Thank you!!

Gemma Browne - West Kensington, London (7th January 2014)

After much anticipation to end the year well I decided to go with Britannia for my driving lessons. I had one goal and that was to pass. Nick was a brilliant instructor, patient, explained things extremely well, and most of all pushed me enough to reach my goal. I passed first time round with only 4 minors. I would most certainly recommend Nick as an instructor, a few of my friends already want to book lessons starting this year! Thank you Nick and Britannia

Naomi Matale - Croydon (4th January 2014)

My driving instructor Neil was very helpful. He was calm and relaxing to be in the car with. His laid back approach and teaching techniques help you to be really comfortable behind the wheel. He was better than my other instructor from another driving school *shots fired*. Without him I wouldn’t have passed my driving test!!
